Microsoft Flight Simulator gives us a great way to visit the great outdoors. You can hop in a plane and fly to any or all of the National Parks. It's the "perfect" vacation that many of us can only dream about.
Whether it's the green hillsides of the Shenendoah, the rugged slopes of Rocky Mountain or the deep and winding canyons of the Bryce, you can get there with Flight Simulator. But with the National Parks Enhanced Scenery, we transform these majestic places into even more vivid, visual memories
Using Flight Simulator's adaptable elevated mesh terrain technology, we've boosted the detail four-fold for the 53 National Parks. We've replaced the default elevation data with super refined 38 meter info. The result is an incredible scenic accuracy bringing Flight Simulator even closer to reality.
For your "flightseeing" pleasure you can fly more than 60 pre-planned tours of the National Parks in one of three different DHC3 Otter (for FS2004 & FS2002) or DHC2 Beaver (for FS2002 & FS2000) models. The 100+ page FlightSeeing Manual provides background information on the parks and flight plans for great flightseeing tours.
It's a trip you won't want to miss!

Normally, the world elevation info for Flight Simulator scenery is accurate to about 150-180 meters.
The National Parks Enhanced Scenery boosts the resolution to 38 meters, thereby quadrupling the scenic accuracy.
You can see from the illustration to the left that much more scenery detail is revealed when the elevation data points are closer together instead of 150 meters apart.
The result is that the earth is modeled even closer to reality and delivering an incredible visual flight.
The Grand Tetons located in western Wyoming
are truly one of nature's visual gifts.

Jenny Lake is nestled among the Tetons.

Along the edge of the lake you'll notice the finer details of the rocks, ground covering and glaciers with enhanced scenery.

By boosting the level of detail, even the relatively flat areas of the Standard Scenery reveal their true height
What a view at the top of the world (with skis) - well it's Alaska!
